Reflexology is a mixed method of CAM as it involves a type of manipulation and the concept of energy fields.A reflexologist applies pressure with the thumbs to mapped points on the feet or hands, or both, by pressing deeply into the point to release tension and stimulate circulation of blood, lymph, and energy.Reflexology is more than massage because practitioners believe that the points correspond to the organs of the body and that stimulating the points will stimulate the organs to heal.Reflexology is a hand pressure technique applied to the hands or feet.It does not involve massage, squeezing, or stretching like acupressure.Neither does it involve the back or legs aside from the feet.Natural body reflexes are not a part of this system.
